Ramblings of an Emergency Physician in Texas

How Patients Remember Me

One of my colleagues was asked to examine a wound today, prior to removing their sutures. (He recounted this tale to me). He said he was impressed with the closure, and asked the patient who her doc had been.

“I don’t recall his name”.
“What does he look like?”.
“He has gray hair, a moustache and is heavyset”.
